As you'll find out, once you start bombing, your auto is living on borrowed time. It sucks having to pay to play, but there's no way around it. On a good note, once you build your transmission properly, it should handle most anything you can throw at it. If you're looking to upgrade to stronger aftermarket parts, I'm sure one of the vendors will chime in before too long.
If it's used parts you need to get you by in the meantime, post up exactly what you're looking for in the Bomb Exchange under "Want to buy" Chances are somebody here will either have what you need or know somebody who does.
